"Play a battle-hardened warrior in For Honor or go behind enemy lines to take down the cartel in Ghost Recon: Wildlands," says the Nvidia email. "For a limited time, you can take home your choice of these Ubisoft titles for free when you get Game Ready with a GeForce GTX 1080 or 1070 graphics card, system, or laptop."

Just keep in mind that you will need to verify your purchase and redeem the code once your GPU is installed. See the original story below for more info.

Original Story February 2, 2017:From now on, if you buy a new GPU in one of Nvidia’s upcoming promotions, usually where they’re bundled with a game or two, you’ll only be able to redeem to code yourself.

Now, when you buy a GPU bundled with a code, you will need to verify the hardware through GeForce Experience before it can be redeemed, so you’ll need to have your graphics card installed first.

Additionally, your GeForce Experience account must show that you’re legally old enough to play the title.

“Game coupon codes offered as part of a qualifying GPU or PC purchase are intended for use by the purchaser,” says the Nvidia FAQ.

“As part of the coupon redemption process, Nvidia uses GeForce Experience to perform a hardware verification step to ensure the coupon code is redeemed on the system with the qualifying GPU.”

This is likely to stop people selling them on through key markets and the like.

“Game coupon codes offered as part of a qualifying GPU or PC purchase are intended for use by the purchaser,” say Nvidia. “Redeeming the code on a qualifying system helps Nvidia verify the game is redeemed by the purchaser.”

I don't know if that's entirely fair to say. They are marketing these things to consumers to try to lure them to buy their GPU over the competitors, so you're not just getting a game or two for free with your purchase, it's very much part of the package, so "take what you're given" is not entirely accurate.

Some people have been selling off the game for a few extra dollars to recoup from the pricey GPU purchase. I don't think that's entirely out of line. Maybe it is, I don't know, but I don't mind people doing that.

I have no idea what kind of selection they offer these days either, as it has been a few years since I bought my GPU.

Since Nvidia can't add the game to your library automatically (at least not on Steam, don't know if they made something with Ubisoft), I would assume that you'd get your key after verifying that you own the hardware it comes with. After that you should be able to give the key to a friend.

I purchased through Dell.com and Dell support said to get the key from nvidia. Went to nvidia and they said it comes from Dell. Talked to 6 different Indians in 5 different departments from Dell and not a single person knew what to do.
